Question

If the nth term of a sequence is given by (-2) rays to power 1-n, what is the fourth term of the sequence

Answer 1

To find the fourth term of the sequence, we first need to determine the formula for the nth term of the sequence. In this case, the nth term is given by (-2)^(1-n).

To find the fourth term, we substitute n=4 into the formula:
(-2)^(1-4) = (-2)^(-3) = 1/(-2)^3 = 1/(-8) = -1/8

Therefore, the fourth term of the sequence is -1/8.
